Therapeutic effect of neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for brain abscess
To evaluate the clinical outcome of neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for brain abscess.
Methods
2
A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 53 patients with brain abscess admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to December 2024. Among them, 29 cases underwent craniotomy for abscess resection (craniotomy group), while 24 cases received neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage (robot-assisted group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, decompressive craniectomy rate, proportion of postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment, postoperative hospital stay, incidence of postoperative complications, mortality rate and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) scores 6 months after surgery of patients were compared between the two groups.
Results
2
Compared with the craniotomy group,the robot-assisted group demonstrated significantly shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and lower incidence of postoperative complication,the d
ifferences were all statistically significant (
P
<
0.05). However,there were no statistically significant differences in terms of decompressive craniectomy rate,postoperative hospital stay,mortality rate,GOS score,or proportion of the postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment between the two groups(
P>
0.05).
Conclusion
2
As a precise and minimally invasive surgical method,neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for patients with brain abscess can effectively improve the operational efficiency, shorten the operation time, reduce intraoperative injury, and lower the risk of postoperative complications. It has high clinical application value and potential for widespread adoption.
